The Intranquility Spell

I've written before on the Intranquil Spirit Spell, and it remains one of my most popular blog posts. As I've said before, it is a curiously popular spell -- perhaps because the desperate who wish to bring back a lost lover enjoy the idea of making their mate as tormented as they are. Some people who cast the spell for themselves even find they feel the spell to have "backfired" on them and claim that THEY, instead of their would-be lover, were the subject rendered intranquil and unable to think of anything else but their desired person.

I don't have any great moral objections to the Intranquility spell: I just don't love doing them because I find their reputation to be rather ill deserved. They just don't work all that well, in my observation: I have seen it to be one of those spells where even if it works, it doesn't really work -- that is, it doesn't do what the person obviously had intended to achieve. Even in cases where everything goes perfectly -- the person who wanted the spell stays quiet and doesn't contact the target of the spell, where there's no backfiring or weirdness, and where the target doesn't just hold out for a lifetime of intranquility -- what generally seems to happen is that the target is rendered intranquil and depending on circumstances, either contacts or comes back to the person who wanted the spell cast. Things are then hunky-dory for a short while, but once the (usually male) target feels contented again, he leaves again. Working with the Intranquil Spirit is, let us say, not a one-time affair.

But as I said in my last post on the subject, it seems to be almost as common for the target to just hold out for a lifetime of strife and stress, based on the reports I've heard from those who used the spells and were able to keep tabs on their exes. It is a general matter with love spells that they cannot go against a person's free will: and no, that's not saying there's some universal rule declaring it's immoral to force a person's free will, I'm saying that love magic spells -- unless the person being targeted is extremely weak-minded and incapable of judgment -- are not able to turn a person into a "zombie" who has no free will and no ability to discern if the course of action being proposed is unreasonable*. This is, for example, why love spells on celebrities whom you've never met don't work: Brad Pitt knows perfectly well, just by way of rational thinking, that it would be a dumb idea to drop what he's doing and go scouting around rural Idaho for some girl he had a dream about (for example) just because he's having bizarrely fond thoughts for this mystery person. Likewise, your ex may know that he just cannot deal with you anymore, and know that even if he's having remorseful or impassioned thoughts that life with you is just not something that's logical any longer; and so he'll ignore the calls from the love spell and keep about his business. This includes Intranquility spells.

As is warned by Jaya over at her blog, "The Anima Sola and Intranquil Spirit don't necessarily reunite lovers so that they are married and live happily forever amen but may reunite lovers only for a short time. After that time is over, it will be very difficult for you to find another love or even have sex with another person as such a strong love spell will certainly create a sexual dysfunction for you other than your former beloved."

Intranquility spells can of course be used by anyone, but they ought be done with much caution.

*And I just love it when people insist "No, it's totally possible! I know someone who did it!" Of course, if this is the truth I want to know all about it! Unfortunately, this story never holds up to further questioning.
